Incorrect form attached to return

I inadvertently attached a form to my return and now I can't get rid of it. I had used the wrong box code (fixed that) and it thought I was adopting a child, which I'm not, and now I can't get rid of form 8839. Thank you.

You'll need to delete Form 8839 Qualified Adoption Expenses. 

  • If you're using TurboTax Online software and need to delete a form, click here.
  • If you're using TurboTax CD\Download software and need to delete a form, click here

Usually, the adoption credit is permitted whether the adoption is domestic or foreign. However, the timing rules for claiming the credit for qualified adoption expenses are different, depending on the kind of adoption.

Thank you but that didn't work. I followed the instructions and the form wasn't there so I went to open the form and it says, "Do I want to create the form". It appears that TurboTax still has that form attached but it can't find it and I can't file my return because of the two "errors" from that form.
